Synopsis

There are lots of blogs regarding, concerning, and featuring sex. There are also lots of films about teenagers. However, there aren’t that many which dive so confidently into a combination of both themes. It goes sort of like this: Daniela is a seventeen year-old teenager who grew up in an evangelist family in Santiago de Chile. She’s seventeen and is in a sexual boiling point, which doesn’t go well with the precepts of her household religion. But through her blog, Daniela becomes a star of online teenage horniness. Horny links. Explicit images. This is a collage film with a narrative that is shaped as an –always– intimate journal and features typically adolescent intermittences and ups-and-downs. A fresh first film that is, yes, young and wild (if you pardon the obviousness). And, also, this is a film that depicts an arm-wrestling match between different views of the world within a family (of the world of sex, mostly, which is pretty much the whole “world” for an obsessed teenager). That’s the reason why, in church, Daniela asks: “God, don’t let my mom type in jovenyalocada.blogspot.com!” Based on true events (and blogs). JPF
